I’ve glued two pieces of wood together after carving it as well as I could to match them up, but there are a couple of gaps I’d like to fill. The trick is I plan to stain the wood and want everything to match?
I understand there’s putty, but does that harden well enough to be sanded?

I do many carpentry/woodworking projects and i was wondering if i would be able to make and sell small projects like tolite paper holders, magazine holders and other small projects. Would these items most likely sell? And what are some other ideas that i might also be able to make and sell?

My next woodworking, or rather ‘Chainsaw Carving’ project: Making a log bench was next on my ‘to-do’ list. I had reserved two Oak logs for this project. Since I rarely get my hands on large logs I was forced to make the bench in pieces, bolting them together with stainless steel rods. An advantage is that the bench can be fully dismantled if you want to relocate it. The bad side is that you have A lot of individual pieces that you need to precise fit onto each other. The wood was still fairy green, so you had to take warping and shrinking into account as well. That took huge amounts of time (and frustration). Despite the troubles I am happy with the result. The color the Tung oil gives the wood is incredible and that moment made up for most of the frustrations. And to be fair, I again learned a lot of new techniques like burning lines with the angle grinder and steel cutting disks. Let me know what you think of it. This bench was made in Hortus Haren, Netherlands.

This is a collection of wood mechanisms driven by a common wood crank. The entire project is wood, no nails, screws, wires, etc. Each assembly is removable. The wood is primarily common pine with some black walnut. Total time required was about 4 months with the majority in the design phase. I was going to add more to the open sides and the interior but decided against it for two reasons; one – it would require more cranking power and two, it would make it difficult to see the existing interior mechanicals. Plus, it now leaves the door open for another possible project to explore more wood mechanisms. In reviewing the audio I mistakenly said there is wire in this thing but not so, it is all wood

Starting up in a woodworking hobby can be exceedingly frustrating for some and simple as pie for other people. It all is dependent on individual abilities. There are those people that can just fly by the seat of their pants and begin creating beautiful products and then other people that can not seem to get anything correct. However do not be disheartened because if you take your time achievement will occur. There are certain steps that have to be followed when starting out in woodworking.1. Organize your workshop logically. You usually do not have to own the most expensive equipment or large dedicated workshop like we have all viewed on the New Yankee Workshop. A double car garage makes a great place to utilize as your work area. The key is make it not dangerous and have lots of area around your larger equipment.2. Fundamental equipment is a good start for beginners. Start out with a table saw with an out feed table, router and router table, radial arm saw, cordless drill, orbital sander and a number of fundamental hand tools. Safety equipment must include a good quality dust collection system that is mobile and an air ventilation system.3. Organize the tools and equipment in a logical pattern that follows the flow of tasks you execute while making your product. It is a great deal easier to move workpiece from one work station to the next when they are next near each other in order of work tasks. In my workshop I placed a workbench a few feet behind my table saw out feed table so that I have a work area both behind and in front of me. A mobile dust collector can be moved near each piece of equipment as needed.4. Explore on line for a first-rate package of wood plans. Do not buy single project plans. There are quite a few packages that contain thousands of project plans included. The plans you purchase ought to contain some different choices of the same product. Diagrams, drawings, material lists, equipment lists, lumber list and an easy to follow instruction guide ought to integrated in the package.5. Make a decision what you want to achieve with your woodworking. Do you desire to design projects for your home? Do you want to build all kinds of crafts that can be sold in local craft shows and stores? Do you want to include a sales sales area inside your shop for selling your products? Regardless of what you choose you will require wood plans to keep your efforts on the straight and narrow.6. The kind of lumber is a necessary choice and depends on what you decide to build. Furniture is typically best built with oak, pine, cherry or maple. It is best to use plywood when building cabinets or any box type furniture. Small craft things such as jewelry boxes can be constructed with walnut or any of the exotic woods. In some parts of the country poplar should be used instead of pine. Whatever wood you opt for make certain it is furniture standardFollowing the above tips will offer you a excellent beginning in woodworking. All in all the most crucial step is to get a high-quality set of wood plans. If you don’t have a good set of plans you will end up forgetting main steps and tips that are covered with the plans. Your project will not turn out the way you envisioned it and you will not be content with the outcome. Everything above is important and essential to starting out in woodworking however a good quality set of plans will provide you the information you need to finish your product well.
